JULIE PRYOR grew up listening to Bruce Springsteen and planning her escape from New Jersey. After earning her master's degree in science journalism from Boston University, she spent a decade crisscrossing the planet producing documentaries for PBS, the History Channel, and National Geographic. She’s flown with Coasties on search and rescue missions, learned the secrets of making moonshine in Appalachia, and spent the night in Al Capone’s cell on Alcatraz Island. She now lives in Boston and works at MIT helping neuroscientists tell their stories to the world. The rest of the time you can find her in the woods hiking with her dog, her husband, and her son – all of whom are rabid Springsteen fans.
